Alexander shows up in some other census but it states he was born in Girvan which I think is the nearest registration place to Colmonell
1851 Scottish census : living at Dalrymple Street, Girvan, Ayr
MCCREADIE, Jean, wife, 60 (1791) Seamstress, born Girvan
Agnes, daughter-in-law, married, 37 (1814) Sewer of Muslin, Girvan
Margaret, daughter, 7 (1844) Scholar, Girvan
James, son, 5 (1846) scholar, Girvan
Alexander, son, 4 (1847) scholar, Girvan

In 1861 still at same address but mother is now a widow and a hoesekeeper
Agnes is still with her but is now a widow and a Nurse
Margaret is now listed as her Grand-daughter a Sewer of Muslin
James as Grand-son a Grocers Apprentice
Alexander as grand-son, Scholar

Hi I am the grandaughter of Gilbert Milroy McCreadie's sister Agnes who married Edward Alexander Hyslop. I realise that two years have passed since you posted your request and in that time I hope you will have found out what you want. However if you are interested I have quite a lot of info on the McCreadies and the Milroys
My father stayed at Bardolphs on several occasions and was very friendly with your Uncle Andrew whom I myself have met on many occasions when he used to visit Barrhill
